Armenia Alliance Condemns Legal Actions Against Kocharyan
Armenia Alliance condemns actions against Robert Kocharyan and his family
The Armenia Alliance, an opposition bloc in Armenia, released a statement on August 25, 2026, condemning legal proceedings against Robert Kocharyan, Armenia's second president and the alliance's leader, and members of his family. The opposition characterized the actions as politically motivated and accused the current government of using state institutions to suppress dissent. In the statement, the Armenia Alliance claimed the proceedings represent "illegal means" of maintaining power and alleged the government is attempting to intimidate opponents and eliminate centers of resistance. The alliance vowed to continue its political activities and stated that neither Kocharyan, his family, nor the political team would be deterred by what they characterized as unlawful actions and fabricated prosecutions.
